Hello everyone!

So, what's the news?

Biggest news is that Diana is officially a professional teacher. She got a job teaching Geometry at a school near where I work (intentionally left vague online). It's a new school, and it really sounds like everyone, both teachers and students, are really excited to be a part of it's formation, and set the pace. It also sounds like it's going to be a really technologically advanced school, which is exciting. Diana already has her website set up, with homework assignments online and stuff. Pretty neat. We're both excited to see how it all goes. Of course, Diana is already making good impressions on both her students and her superiors.

My professional life continues as it has. I have my annual review coming up soon, which I always get nervous for. I always hated tests in college, and this is as close to a test as I get now that I'm all grownsed up. However, we did just get our annual performance/incentive bonuses, which largely reflects our performance, and my boss said good things about me, so I think I'll be ok. I got a very nice bonus, too. :)

This weekend, Diana's parents took us to see "The Flying Karamozov" brothers show downtown. They are jugglers who do about 20 minutes of really fantastic juggling in a very silly 1.5 hour show. I think I would have prefered more cool juggling and less silly stuff, but whatever, the whole experience was a good time.

While in the area, we picked up plane tickets to Montana for the summer to visit while David and Elaine and Ben and my parents are out there. So that'll be good.

Diana and I did some more Netflix'in, too. Recently, we got some more mystery things which we really enjoy, as well as "Sleepy Hollow", which we both hated. Who'd have thought that Tim Burton and Johnny Depp could go so wrong, but there it was. Hopefully this isn't portentious of the new "Willy Wonka" movie coming out.

I'm sure there's more I had to write about, but my mind has been distracted.

Last night was my weekly WoW night where my boys and I specifically try to meet up and adventure together. Last night was particularly satisfying, and I went to bed much too late and much too elated from just playing a computer game, but so it goes. This upcoming weekend is the Superbowl, and there is some movement underfoot to get together with friends, which should be fun. Iwan and I also have a golf date, which I'm looking forward to, since I haven't golfed in forever. I'm sure you can read all about it on his blog.

That's about it for now. Take care!
